How Consumer Rights Affect this Plan
THE BENEFITS CONFERRED BY THIS PLAN ARE IN ADDITION TO ALL RIGHTS AND REMEDIES PROVIDED UNDER CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS AND REGULATIONS. THIS PLAN SHALL NOT PREJUDICE THE RIGHTS GRANTED BY APPLICABLE CONSUMER LAW, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO RECEIVE REMEDIES UNDER STATUTORY WARRANTY LAW AND TO SEEK DAMAGES IN THE EVENT OF THE NON-PERFORMANCE BY APPLE OF ANY OF ITS CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS.
1. The Plan
This contract (the "Plan") governs the services provided by Apple under the above plans and includes the terms in this document, your Plan Confirmation ("Plan Confirmation"), and the original sales receipt for your Plan. Your Plan Confirmation will be provided to you at the time of purchase or sent to you automatically thereafter. If you purchased your Plan from Apple, you may obtain a copy of your Plan Confirmation by going to mysupport.products.
Benefits under this Plan are additional to your rights under applicable laws, the manufacturer's hardware warranty and any complimentary technical support. The terms of the Plan apply the same whether for a fixed term of coverage ("Fixed-Term Plan"), or for a monthly recurring term of coverage ("Monthly Plan"), except where otherwise noted. Your Plan may be paid by you or a third party who finances or otherwise pays for your Plan (a "Plan Payment Provider").
The Plan covers the following equipment (collectively, the "Covered Equipment"): (i) the Apple Watch, HomePod, iPad (including an Apple Pencil and an Apple-branded iPad keyboard purchased for use with your iPad, referred to as "iPad Input Devices"), iPhone, iPod, or the Appleor Beats-branded headphones listed on your Plan Confirmation ("Covered Device"), (ii) the accessories contained inside the original packaging of your Covered Device, and (iii) for Monthly Plans with an original Plan purchase date prior to September 2020 only, an AirPort Express or AirPort Extreme Base Station, and an AirPort Time Capsule if used with a HomePod or an iPad that is a Covered Device and purchased no earlier than two years before the HomePod or the iPad ("Connectivity Device").
2. Plan Term and Renewal
Plan coverage begins when you purchase the Plan and continues, unless cancelled, through the date specified in your Plan Confirmation (the "Plan Term").
For Monthly Plans, your Plan Term is one (1) month. Monthly Plans will automatically renew each month unless cancelled as set forth in the "Cancellation" Section 9 below, including in the event that Apple is no longer able to service your Covered Equipment due to the unavailability of service parts, in which case Apple will provide you with sixty (60) days' prior written notice of cancellation, or as otherwise required by law. Monthly Plans may not be available for all Covered Devices.
For Fixed-Term Plans, your Plan Term is fixed as set forth on your Plan Confirmation. Apple is not obligated to renew your Fixed-Term Plan. If Apple does offer to renew, Apple will determine the price and terms.
For Monthly Plans and monthly paid Fixed-Term Plans (where available), you agree to have the credit card, debit card or other authorized payment source i.e. Apple Pay (the "Payment Source")
used for your initial Plan purchase (or your first Plan payment where not otherwise paid for by a Plan Payment Provider), kept on file to automatically charge in advance of the first day of each month following your initial payment. If your Payment Source cannot be charged for any reason, and you have not otherwise made the appropriate renewal or monthly payment on time, your Plan coverage will cease from the due date. Apple has the right, but not the obligation, to accept any late payment and allow your Plan to continue from the date of late payment. For Monthly Plans only, if the price of your Monthly Plan is subject to change upon renewal, you will be notified in advance of any price increase, in accordance with Section 11 of this Plan.
You can find the price of the Plan on the original sales receipt as provided by Apple or another seller from whom you've purchased your Plan (a "Reseller"), or your Plan Payment Provider, or, if you purchased this Plan on a covered iPhone as part of AppleCare+ with Theft & Loss, you can see the price of your Plan in Section 12(p).

6. Service Options
Apple will provide hardware services to you through one or more of these options:
(a) Carry-in service. Carry-in service is available for most Covered Equipment. Return the Covered Equipment to an Apple-owned retail store location or to an Apple Authorized Services Provider ("AASP") that offers carry-in service. Service will be performed for you at the store, or the store may send the Covered Equipment to an Apple repair service ("ARS") site for service. You must promptly retrieve the Covered Equipment.
(b) Mail-in service. Direct mail-in service is available for most Covered Equipment. If Apple determines that your Covered Equipment is eligible for mail-in service, Apple will send you prepaid waybills (and, if needed, packaging material). You must ship the Covered Equipment to an ARS site in accordance with Apple's instructions. Once service is complete, the ARS site will return the Covered Equipment to you. Apple will pay for shipping to and from your location if you follow all instructions.
(c) Express Replacement Service ("ERS") or do-it-yourself ("DIY") parts service. ERS is available for certain Covered Equipment. ERS is not available for iPod, iPhone Screen-Only claims, or Connectivity Devices. DIY parts service is available for many Covered Equipment. This allows you to service your own Covered Equipment. If Apple requires return of the replaced device or part, Apple may require a credit card authorization to serve as security for the retail price of the replacement device or part and applicable shipping costs until you return the replaced device as instructed. If you are not able to provide credit card authorization, service may not be available to you in which case Apple will offer an alternative arrangement for service. If you fail to return the replaced Covered Equipment or part as instructed or return a replaced Covered Equipment or part that is ineligible for service, Apple will charge the credit card for the authorized amount. If Apple does not require return of the replaced product or part, Apple will ship you free of charge a replacement product or part accompanied by any applicable instructions or requirements for disposal of the replaced product or part. Apple is not responsible for any labor costs you incur in respect to ERS or DIY parts service.
(d) Onsite service is available for certain Covered Devices, depending on availability in your service location. Verify eligibility and schedule a service appointment with an Apple authorized mobile service provider at support.country-selector. If onsite service is available at your desired location, you will be contacted directly by Apple's authorized service provider to confirm your appointment.
Service will be performed at the location, or the service technician will transport the Covered Equipment to an AASP or ARS location for repair. If the Covered Equipment is repaired at an AASP or ARS location, Apple will arrange for transportation of the Covered Equipment to your location following service. If the service technician is not granted access to the Covered Equipment at the appointed time, any further onsite visits may be subject to an additional charge.
Apple may change the method by which Apple provides repair or replacement service to you, and your Covered Equipment's eligibility to receive a particular method of service.
Service will be limited to the options available in the country where you request service. Service options, parts availability and response times may vary. If service is not available for the Covered Equipment in a country that is not the country of purchase, you may be responsible for shipping and handling charges to facilitate service in a country where service is available. If you seek service in a country that is not the country of purchase, you must comply with all applicable import and export laws and regulations and be responsible for all custom duties, V.A.T. and other associated taxes and charges.
